When US president-oligarch Trump says he's going to invade or annex Canada, he is not joking, teasing, or trolling. He is making a threat. Take him seriously and prepare for war. 📃🇨🇦🍁
The sooner Canadians, Mexicans, and allies come to an understanding that the United States under Trump could flip from ally to enemy, the sooner they can prepare for combat and protect their sovereignty and democracy.
Refuse to accept the US manifest destiny or its expansionist language, refer to them as USian because no man or woman on these continents is more or less American than the others. The United States does not have a monopoly on democracy, freedom, America, or the ability to fight for these ideals.
The 18th-century French writer Voltaire famously said that no adversary would want a “few acres of snow” in Canada. But Canada is more than a few acres of snow. There are population centres, citizens, infrastructure, and resources, including the water and oil Trump is eyeing. And amongst all this some strategic targets an aggressor might covet.
Today Canada faces many threats from different fronts, including Russia, China, India, and now under Trump the United States. Each one of these countries is waging war against Canada through disinformation, bot armies, and coercion. Openly trying to dismantle the nation and the principles that glue it together.
So far, Canadian politicians and state media have reacted in a manner unbefitting to a nation facing invasion and subjugation from a much larger and more powerful adversary. The current response by Canada's state media has been to minimize the threat or conduct polls normalizing the idea of annexation and invasion, instilling the delusion that these acts of war could be done peacefully.
Other Canadian delusions include articles and commentary playing down the threat and recommending Canadians ignore Trump as if collectively wishing the danger to go away. Such actions only benefit the enemy which relies on silent consent and inaction to accomplish his goals of territorial expansion.
Even more disconcerting, is the reaction by the so-called "Team Canada" government managed under Justin Trudeau which has decided that the appropriate response to Trump's threats is to propose new unnecessary border project serving as a token of appeasement, redirecting $1.6 billion of Canadian tax payer's money, to Trump and his cabal of oligarchs.
These projects proposed by Trudeau will not only fail as appeasement they will be capitulation, as they propose the notion of joint policing to tackle nearly non-existent issues claimed by enemy disinformation networks and collaborators. This will grant the US further control over Canada, no different than a colonizing force. This is often seen as the first step towards annexation.
To make matters worse, many disgruntled Canadians seem unable to distinguish real information from enemy propaganda and are floating the idea that they'd be better off being annexed or invaded, many promising to welcome the invaders with open arms. Such sentiments are being met with levity rather than the severity deserved by open treason.
When Russian president-oligarch Vladimir Putin was threatening to invade and annex Ukraine few in the government and media took him seriously. Many pretended he was 'joking' and up until the point that Russian troops took Crimea in 2014, they ridiculed the notion of their neighbour invading and annexing them as ridiculous and alarmist.
Before Russia's invasion, many Ukrainian politicians, personalities, and media also tried to appease Putin and proposed joint projects, preached 'brotherly' unity, pretended that 'no way Russia would harm its economy like that', and laughed at the notion of an invasion. World governments and media further reinforced these ideas providing a false sense of security.
Before the invasion, Russia created a separatist idea in Ukraine. Angry at amplified or invented problems, disgruntled Ukrainians upset about the economy, culture wars, and whatever flavour of the month grievances they were fed through media became separatists welcoming the invaders with open arms. They joined Russian ranks only to discover they are less than second hand citizens used as cannon fodder by their new oligarch masters.
In Ukraine, like in Canada, the invading force is not looking to make life better for its conquered people but to remove them from their lands and identity, primarily through genocide, to claim ownership of its rich and abundant resources worth billions of dollars. If you think an expansionist invasion by USians won't include mass murder, then you are wrong.
The friendship between Canada and the United States is a fairly recent development shaped in the trenches of the end of World War 1 and throughout World War 2, where Canadian troops proved their tenacity and ability to wage modern warfare in their battles against Germany.
Before this new friendship, the United States conspired against Canada sizing it up for its expansionist goals. Thomas Jefferson, a US founding father and rapist slaver owner, remarked that the capture of Canada was “a mere matter of marching”. The USians quickly learned that a coalition of first-nations and Canadian troops under the British flag had no desire to be part of their failed experiment.
In 1919, the United States dubbed their aspirations of invading Canada, 'War Plan Red'. This was guised as a war game "in case" imperial Britain declared war on the US. The plan was to invade Canada to force the UK to surrender, however, if Canada declared 'neutrality' it would still get occupied.
War Plan Red outlined the United States strategy for a potential invasion of Canada to take its resources, ports, and airbases. The plan identified key geographic and strategic targets across Canada, focusing on cutting off European allied reinforcement and seizing vital infrastructure.
The plan proposed capturing key locations, including Halifax to sever European-Canadian naval links, Niagara Falls for its power plants, and Montreal and Quebec City to block troop and resource movements. It outlined simultaneous offensives across multiple fronts, targeting Ontario’s industrial heartland, Winnipeg’s rail hub, and Vancouver’s Pacific ports, supported by naval blockades of Canada’s coasts and control of the Great Lakes.
Key Objectives of a US invasion of Canada were outlined as:
1. Halifax, Nova Scotia: Capture the port city to sever Canada's connection with Britain and disable its naval capabilities.
2. Niagara Falls: Seize power plants to disrupt Canada's energy supply.
3. Montreal and Quebec City: Control these cities to block troop and resource movements between eastern Canada and the seaboard.
4. Great Lakes and Ontario: Gain dominance over Toronto, key industries, and the Great Lakes for logistics.
5. Winnipeg: Capture this central rail hub to disrupt Canada’s nationwide transport network.
6. Vancouver and British Columbia: Deny Britain access to Pacific naval bases and sever Canada's western connections.
Canada developed an earlier counterpart to War Plan Red, Defence Scheme No. 1, on April 12, 1921. Maintaining that the best defence was a good offence, they planned for rapid deployment of flying columns to occupy Seattle, Great Falls, Minneapolis, and Albany. With little hope of holding the objectives, the goal was to divert US troops to the flanks and away from Canada, hopefully long enough for allies to arrive with reinforcements. Defence Scheme No. 1 was terminated in 1928.
In 1935, War Plan Red was updated with specific invasion routes, including the recommendation to use Route 99 to reach Vancouver. The plan reflected an intention to permanently annex Canadian territories into the United States, preparing them to become U.S. states and territories after the war.
In the event of a modern invasion of Canada, the population can expect mass casualties from cuts to supplies and superior US air dominance, any Canadian troops hosted in joint Canada - US bases would be quickly captured and US troops would likely take the capital in Ottowa within hours.
However... in the event of a US invasion of Canada, there will be resistance and not the type that carries a sign. Canadian troops would switch to an active insurgency and head North, where they would regroup in the wilderness and mountains of the second biggest country in the world. There they would organize an insurgency aided by allies, who will provide intelligence, and supplies, and act as unofficial intermediaries.
Civilians would also join the fray to combat US troops. Many being hunters and former reservists, not only from Canada but other countries too. The insurgency in rural and urban areas will likely target the US with hit-and-run tactics, assassinations, IEDs, and suicide drones. Others would aid the insurgency through localized intelligence networks and crowdfunding. While USians will be very divided about the prospect of a war with Canada, Canadians are raised to expected aggression from their neighbour and will be far more unified in their response.
Most importantly, given the proximity to the United States, the Canadian insurgency will spill over to US streets and probably target police departments, US bases, airports, power plants, water supplies, crops, state legislatures, propagandists, collaborators, and ultimately those close to the Trump administration in both government and industry.
Unfortunately given the nature of a war between Canada and the US, any resulting insurgency carrying out operations within the United States would not be able to distinguish between Democrats and Republicans. Meaning, that the US would likely undergo significant disruption from a collapsed economy, sabotaged logistics, and random bombings that affect everyone.
The goal would be to make the United States bleed to the point that the occupation of Canada becomes far more costly than beneficial, creating a rift within the population, forcing either the removal of Trump by the US Congress/ Senate or the birth of a rebellion. Given enough of a push, the US would schism into a kinetic war between pro-democracy forces allied with Canadian insurgents and those loyal to Donald Trump and his oligarch cabal.
Ultimately nobody writing history will distinguish between which side USians voted for, they will all have to pay war reparations and carry the same guilt. The best defence is still a good offence for Canada and the United States. Anyone that wants to prevent war needs to act now. You need to meet the threat with defence not conciliation. And not wait to find out what Trump is going to do when he’s already told us what he’s going to do.
ASK YOURSELF 1 SIMPLE QUESTION.. WHY DID ALL OF THE ASSASSINATION ATTEMPTS AGAINST DONALD TRUMP SUDDENLY STOP AFTER THE ELECTION????? STRANGE RIGHT!!!!
Canadians are getting a tax break. Starting December 14, we’re pausing GST and HST for two months to make groceries, kids clothes, and other essentials tax-free.
When you see the Maple Leaf emblazoned on a uniform, you see a legacy of courage and sacrifice.
That legacy lives on — through monuments, through ceremonies, through stories of patriotism, and through our remembrance. #CanadaRemembers
